I love how he buries the most important screw-up half way into the article…

“Complaint: Can’t import old FCP files.

Answer: As I noted in my column, this is true; your old projects are stranded forever in the older FCP program. You’ll have to keep both programs on your hard drive, and edit the old projects in the old program. When you install the new FCP, your old copy is safely preserved.”

I’m sorry, but this is the biggest deal breaker of them all. After trying Walter Biscardi’s tutorial of opening old FCP7 files in PPro (it works!) I’m seriously thinking of getting my shop to switch. I have projects that I have to work on that are two,….three…..four years after the initial project. What are they thinking?!?!
